SECRETMr.Dear Mr. :Reference is made to your current contract with the United StatesGovernment, as represented by the Contracting Officer.Arrangements have been recently completed allowing certainIndependent contractors of this organization to obtain social securitycredits by covering such individuals under the social security taxprovisions applicable to employees. These arrangements also includea provision for retroactive applicability to the beginning of the1965 tax year. This can be done only for reasons of security sincethe procedure results in reducing the social security tax from theself-employed rate to the employee rate. For example, in Januaryof 1965 the tax rates were 5.4% and 3-5/8% respectively.As a consequence thereof, said contract is amended by deletingall reference to social security and by adding the following paragraph:"Effective I December 1964, social security taxes will be covertlydeducted by this organization from your compensation in the samemanner and to the same extent as would be done if you were a Govern-ment employee. Security reasons make this procedure necessary. Itsimplementation does not imply in any manner the actual creation of anemployee-employer relationship, Your legal status under this agree-ment continues to be that of an independent contractor."If you receive or expect to receive full or partial social securitycredits from overt sources you will so notify this organization and anadjustment will be made or covert deductiona discontinued, dependingupon the circumstances. Further, if you should subsequently receiveovert social security credito, evidence thereof will be submitted to thiếorganization. In such event your covert credits will be erased and yourcovert deductions returned.All other terms and conditions of said contract remain in full forceand effect.UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT-BYContracting OfficerSECRETGroup 1 - Excluded from automatic downgrading and declassification.Pw/id/9.65wh/vie
